I quilt on Tuesday mornings at Little Blessings Quilt Shop in Crossville. Little Blessings is just off I-40 at Exit 317. Julia teaches classes, then we work on our quilts together.

I've visited Little Blessings a couple of times on the way home to Fayetteville after being in Harriman for Christmas. I have always enjoyed looking around - different things displayed differently, you know....and always made a few purchases. I wish it were closer. A girl I work with has a quilting sister who lives in Franklin, Tennessee, and her sister absolutely fell in love with the Little Blessings shop when she stumbled across it on her way back home from Gatlinburg a year or so ago.

And somebody mentioned a shop in Harriman - didn't know there was one and will have to try to find it next time I'm there.

The shop in Harriman is called Loose Threads. A really nice couple own it and both of them work in the shop. If you get off the interstate at Exit 347, turn right and go towards the city of Harriman.

The people that own that sewing machine place on Kingston pike are friends of mine and also own the store here in Murfreesboro. The are a super bunch of people. Glad you stop in.

I llve in Memphis and Bartlett is just outside of Memphis, but we still consider it Memphis. The lady that is going to Barlett to visit, please go by Klassy Katz on Elmore Park. It is a small shop but full of great material and wonderful people in the shop.

There are two great shops to check out, Lavender Lime Quilting which is located in East Ridge, right off I-24, about a mile from I-75/I-24 intersection. Phone number is 423-499-5282.

The other shop is called Sew Bee It and is located south of Chattanooga in Ringgold, GA about 10 miles south on I-75, exit 348. I don't have their phone number but I am sure you can find it online.

Happy shopping!

I was at the Knoxville show Thursday and Friday. The quilts were absolutely incredible! Thursday the crowd was a little light but picked up some Friday and hope Saturday was even better. Also checked out Kat's Pur-fect Quilt Shop and Mamaw's Thimble locally and loved them both!
